LIVESTRONG.COM SAYS: 

Recommended Daily Grapefruit Allowance


If you're trying to lose weight, you're better off eating two whole grapefruits daily, according to Drugs.com. Alternatively, drink about 8 oz. of grapefruit juice three times a day before each meal. Doing this for three months is likely to yield a weight loss, because grapefruit affects the way your digestive system processes fat. Grapefruit also causes a reduction in cholesterol levels, which helps your cardiovascular system.

Side Effects and Adverse Reactions

Like other detoxification diets, the grapefruit cleanse can have side effects, including nausea and dizziness. 
Grapefruit can also affect the way your body processes medications. Cholesterol and blood-pressure medications, such as buspirone and simvastatin, and grapefruit should not be eaten together, FamilyDoctor.org advises. A grapefruit cleanse, moreover, might exacerbate the interaction. Talk with your doctor about your medications and how they may interact with grapefruit.
Some variations of the cleans advise colon flushing. This may affect your electrolyte balance, according to the Mayo Clinic. An electrolyte imbalance is dangerous if you have a kidney or heart condition
